traveling approximately 1,000 feet after the unit making the application.
All traffic lines painted shall conform in every respect to the New York State Manual of
Uniform Traffic Control Devices, especially as to color, width and spacing of lines, dashed
or solid line and locations for changes in type of line and sight distance.
All paint shall be applied at the minimum rate of one (1) gallon for every three hundred
(300) feet of solid four (4) inch line. The same rate of application shall apply for skip or
broken lines.
Glass beads for reflectorization shall be applied to all painted lines at the minimum rate of

his expense.

hundred eighty (180) seconds of it being applied to the pavement.
